EIO Kids Cup Cap & Sleeve (Glass Jar Is Not Included) (Orange)

Our Take

The EIO cap and silicone sleeve are designed to fit on most 8oz glass canning jars. This lets you create the perfect glass training cup while using a glass canning jar that most of us already have, or can easily purchase at any grocery store.

Starting with genuine, durable canning jars, EIO's unique design offers the only spill-resistant toddler training cup designed for convenience and health benefits.

The Kids Cup is a spout-free, valve-free cup made without BPA, Phthalates and PVC, and is designed to transition young children properly from bottles to real glass dinnerware.

Give them confidence. Give yourself convenience. EIO is a one of kind kids cup. Our cap and sleeve fit on virtually any 8oz canning jar. The sleeve is easy to remove and can be left on the cup for washing. How's that for convenience?

We lost the valve... so you won't! EIO's cap is specifically designed without small parts, like the easy-to-lose valve. According to the ADA's recommendations for better dental development, children over the age of one should drink from a cup without a valve (* From The Journal of the American Dental Association, Vol. 135, No 3, 387). Spouts can also be detrimental, as they tend to become chew toys. EIO encourages a healthy, natural transition to cups.

Clearly, it's EIO for years to come. Our modern design appeals to kids of all ages and our versatility allows you to use the jar without the cap as your child learns new skills. The sleeve offers a flashy style and grippy surface no matter how old you are! Never throw them away. That's great news for our environment!

TGBB Reviews: EIO Learn To Drink :: Cap and Sleeve, Orange

I agree with the other reviewer about the sleeve being somewhat hard to get on the canning jar. That being said, be really gentle when putting it on and you will love it. The most eco-friendly idea for a drinking cup and so very easy to wash. Thank you Kriste at TGBB for your outstanding customer service and reasonable shipping to Canada.

We absolutely love these cups. I bought two, one for each of my children. They are durable, wash up nicely and best of all are free of toxins. The sleeves are a little hard to get on and I accidently tore one of them. Once on the cup the sleeves can get a little loose, but I found washing them in hot water or putting them in the dishwasher helps. The lids/spout is perfect, just the right flow. Expensive, but worth it!
